Dear Magnolians

Is anyone of you actually using the stk/form-module versions of the public user 
registration forms? What are your experiences with them. I must admit I have 
not studied the form module thoroughly yet but the way I understand it, each 
field can be validated and an appropriate error message can then be displayed. 
Once the fields are validated there is only a fail or success answer from 
processors.

Let's take the password reminder form for instance:
http://demopublic.magnolia-cms.com/demo-features/modules/public-user-registration/PURPassword.html

If you enter an invalid username, a totally useless error message is being 
displayed ("Internal error, form could not be sent"). The same thing happens 
when you try to register a username which already exists with the registration 
form. Of course I would like to to things according to the "best practices", 
but I guess I must be missing something here...

- Should these forms be extended with custom validators?
- Is it easy to improve the error handling on processor errors?
- Or is this stuff simply "experimental" or "pre-alpha" and one should use 
custom forms for now?

Best regards and a happy new year!
